Why did you start Workera?
Equitable learning has always been close to my heart as my parents were students during a revolution in Iran, and not able to follow their educational and career dreams. When I began teaching AI at Stanford, I was motivated to research how we can measure people’s skills accurately using modern technologies, and more specifically, what AI can bring to psychometrics—the science of measurement. I spent a year reading research on psychometrics and tying it to my own work in AI. I find the problem of measuring people’s capabilities fascinating and from that build a unique technology to evaluate and mentor people.
